Default connecting 2 xbox 360's together Q *UPDATE*

as above, thinking of connecting the upstairs one to the downstairs one, is it just the case of a modem cable?

why not just let your boys play on the same tv as you?

unless you have more than 3 boys?

If they are wireless and you have a wireless modem, it should just work.

Failing that, you could try a crossover CAT 5 cable, or use the mains networking kits.

UPDATE.....
you only need a modem cable to connect the too, the game you are playing needs 'system link' GTA 1V hasn't got it though
